A wireless communications network is any system which uses electromagnetic waves to communicate wirelessly over some distance. Common applications are cellular phones, CBs, Ham radios, wireless local area networks, point to point links, sensor networks, and personal area networks. Distances range from several feet to tens of miles.

Here we give an overview of different technologies, critical applications, and the OSE projects to address them.
